Looking to improve upon articles of subjects that I have studied. If you are reading my page because of my edits on the Eight-circuit model of consciousness, know that I think it needs tons of work. Most of the article (like 90%) as it is now is referenced from third party sources, and it is mostly someone's interpretation of what they halfway read. This means that most of the content is unreferenced RUBBISH.
I started working on the Eight-circuit model of consciousness article on 22 November, 2016. I've been interested the model for 10 years, read 8 books on this topic, and viewed the Wikipedia article of the Eight-circuit model of consciousness for about 7 years.
For years, the article has been chopped and edited by people with their opinion. For example, the website deoxy.org takes parts from Robert Anton Wilson's book "Prometheus Rising", and the original Wikipedia editors of the article have sourced deoxy.org as credible sources.
My editing consists first and foremost of adding direct source statements, with in line citations. Secondly, researching what claims are on the article as it is now, and adding citations, or deleting what cannot be traced back to a credible source.
The Eight-Circuit Model of Consciousness is a proposal by Timothy Leary, and later expanded on by Robert Anton Wilson and Antero Alli, that "suggested eight periods[circuits] and twenty-four stages of neurological evolution".[1] The eight circuits, or eight "brains" as referred by other authors, operate within the human nervous system, each corresponding to its own imprint and direct experience of reality.[2] Leary and Alli include three stages for each circuit that details developmental points for each level of consciousness.[3][4][5]
The term "circuit" is equated to a metaphor of the brain being computer hardware, and that the wiring of the brain as circuitry.[6][7]
Leary uses the eight circuits along with recapitulation theory to explain the evolution the human species, the personal development of an individual, and the biological evolution of all life.[8][9]
Each circuit listed has each name from Leary's book "Exo-Psychology" after the preface,[10][11] and Wilson's book "Quantum Psychology" pgs.196-201.[12] Note:In other books from Leary, Wilson, and Alli, the eight circuits have different names due to different interpretations and findings of each author. Please reference bibliography section for other works on labeling of each circuit.
